Outline

Recently, I have succeeded in synthesizing functional materials which emit near infra-red (NIR) light in the mechanical stimulation. In this project, by developing nano-probes based on the material system, I would like to build a new technology for visualizing/measuring real-time forces in living tissue and cells in vivo.
